Frequently asked questions

What is the Buyer Readiness Score?

A free 8-question check that rates how ready you are to buy a home on a 0 to 100 scale, based on credit, savings, pre-approval, income, debts, timeline, budget, and location. It gives you three next steps.

Is the Buyer Readiness Score a pre-approval?

No. It does not check your credit and is not a loan decision. Only a lender can pre-approve you.

What score do I need to start looking at homes?

There is no cutoff. A higher score usually means you can tour and offer soon. A lower score means a few steps first, often pre-approval or savings.
